A related installation at the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery can be viewed (and heard) from a sidewalk window. There will also be an installation inside the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nOct. 1-23: Large-Scale Public Art Installation\, U-M Museum of Art\, 525 S.

For instructions\, please email cseas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘A Thousand Cuts’”\n\nAbout the movie:\nOn June 15\, 2020\, journalist Maria Ressa was found guilty of cyber libel\, setting a ticking clock on the limited time she has to get her story out to the world and keep the fight for democracy alive in this all too familiar tale of an autocratic leader drowning out “fake news.” Nowhere is the worldwide erosion of democracy\, fueled by social media disinformation campaigns\, more starkly evident than in the authoritarian regime of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. Ressa places the tools of the free press—and her freedom—on the line in defense of truth and democracy. Ramona S. Diaz’s thrilling film follows key players from two sides of an increasingly dangerous war between press and government. As each side digs in\, we become witness to an epic and ongoing fight for the integrity of human life and truth itself—a conflict that extends beyond the Philippines into our own divisive backyard. A Film by Ramona S. Diaz (IMELDA\, MOTHERLAND).\n\nCosponsored by the Michigan Theater.

Wright Museum of African American History and the U-M Museum of Art\, with funding from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama explores global exchange\, commerce and the troubling histories of colonialism and slavery in the Western world. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nGhanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama’s installations are cumulative moments of reckoning\, mending\, and recycling. Things fall apart\, come undone. His constructions defy any notions of permanence and longevity. They are monuments to the in-between and the upending\, begging the question\, “What can we do?”\n\nMahama incorporates jute sacks—synonymous with the trade markets of Ghana where he lives and works—as a raw material. He works collaboratively with his community to complete the extensive sewing of the sacks required in preparation for his projects. For the U-M installations\, he incorporates materials from his previous seminal works over the last decade as a retrospective.\n\nThe markings\, stitching\, and signs of wear on the jute remind us of the many changing hands and endless labor behind international trade—the human toll of capitalism\, commodification\, and globalization. The fabric itself acts as metaphor for Ghana’s complicated history defined by Dutch colonialism and the Gold Coast slave trade\, British rule till 1957\, and a future de-railed by military coups post-independence.\n\nRather than grand gestures\, Mahama’s installations are humble acts of endurance. They are covert art take-overs\, subverting architecture and disrupting the pristine fascia of our institutional buildings. They hold us accountable for past trespasses. \n\nMahama is committed to offering his own country the same cultural opportunities and experiences available to those in the West. Most recently he designed and opened the Savannah Centre for Contemporary Arts in his hometown of Tamale Ghana\, contributing towards the expansion of his country’s contemporary art scene. An extension of his art practice\, the centre brings Mahama’s many visionary sketches to life\, creating classrooms in old airplanes\, a swimming pool for children’s play\, and public spaces for gatherings and the exchange of ideas.\n\nIn this pivotal year defined by Covid-19\, worldwide protests in support of Black Lives Matter\, climate change\, and our U.S. Presidential election in the balance\, Ibrahim Mahama’s work acknowledges failures and false promises\, but also the opportunities that can reveal themselves in times of crisis. \n\nPerhaps generations emerging from crisis can learn from the ghosts of the past and generate entirely new systems\, not motivated by profit or self-interest\, but by a deep commitment to the hard work ahead\, our willingness to do it\, and to the mutual space for dreams.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\, Institute for the Humanities and curator of In Between the World and Dreams \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is a multi-venue project led by the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, in partnership with UMMA and the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History\, Detroit. \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is made possible by a grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to further the Institute for the Humanities Gallery’s longtime mission in support of art as social practice.\n\nOct. 1-23\; large-scale public art installation\, U-M Museum of Art building facade\, 525 S.

U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nTitle:\nData-Driven Sample-Average Approximation for Stochastic Optimization with Covariate Information\n\nAbstract:\nWe consider optimization models for decision-making in which parameters within the optimization model are uncertain\, but predictions of these parameters can be made using available covariate information. We consider a data-driven setting in which we have observations of the uncertain parameters together with concurrently-observed covariates. Given a new covariate observation\, the goal is to choose a decision that minimizes the expected cost conditioned on this observation. We investigate a data-driven framework in which the outputs from a machine learning prediction model are directly used to define a stochastic programming sample average approximation (SAA). The framework is flexible and accommodates parametric\, nonparametric\, and semiparametric regression techniques. The basic version of this framework is not new\, but we are the first to analyze the procedure and derive conditions on the data generation process\, the prediction model\, and the stochastic program under which solutions of these data-driven SAAs are consistent and asymptotically optimal. We also derive convergence rates and finite sample guarantees. We also propose new variations that use out-of-sample residuals of leave-one-out prediction models for scenario generation. Computational experiments validate our theoretical results\, demonstrate the potential advantages of our data-driven formulations over existing approaches (even when the prediction model is misspecified)\, and illustrate the benefits of our new variants in the limited data regime.\n\nBio:\nJim Luedtke is a Professor and Associate Chair for Graduate Studies in the department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

With so much output around engagement within our own borders\, it can be difficult knowing where to access new knowledge coming out globally\, and there is much to share between countries about different ways to organize community-based research in all its forms (CBR\, CBPR\, PAR). In our experience\, graduate students and new faculty have said they want to learn more about different models to create equitable research and class projects. The International Living Knowledge Network of “Science Shops” has a 40-year history using principles of knowledge co-creation in a ‘brokerage’ type fashion. Forging positive links with researchers in the EU and beyond would also yield mutually beneficial exchanges of information and resources in both directions\, helping increase the reach of CBR and innovation projects globally. While current U.S. political polarization creates heavy headwinds for science and research\, many U.S. individuals and institutions are working hard to encourage knowledge co-production\, including some robust activities in CBR and Citizen Science we can share and compare.

Accurate prediction of tropical cyclogenesis by numerical models has been a significant challenge\, largely because of the lack of observations over the tropical oceans. The atmospheric limb sounding technique\, which makes use of radio signals transmitted by global navigation satellite systems (GNSS)\, has evolved as a robust global observing system. This technique\, known as radio occultation (RO) can provide valuable water vapor and temperature observations for the analysis and prediction of tropical cyclogenesis. Using the WRF modeling and data assimilation system\, we show that the assimilation of RO data can substantially improve the skills of the model in predicting the tropical cyclogenesis for ten typhoon cases that took place over the Western Pacific from 2008 to 2010. To gain insight on the impact of GPS RO data assimilation\, we perform a detailed analysis of the formation process of Typhoon Nuri (2008)\, and examine how the assimilation of the GPS RO data enables the model to capture the cyclogenesis. The joint Taiwan-U.S. COSMIC-II mission was launched in June 2019. It has been providing more than 5\,000 GPS RO data per day over the tropics since March 2020\, after the check-out phase.

Assessing the State of Play in Polish Politics: The 2020 Presidential Elections DESCRIPTION:Panelists: Anna Grzymała-Busse\, Michelle and Kevin Douglas Professor of International Studies\, Stanford University\; Benjamin Paloff\, associate professor of Slavic languages & literatures and comparative literature\, U-M\; Brian Porter-Szűcs\, Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of History\, U-M.\n\nIn the first round of Poland’s 2020 presidential elections\, the incumbent Andrzej Duda\, from the ruling Law and Justice Party\, received 43% of the vote. If this result suggested an early consolidation of conservative voters’ enthusiasm\, the second round of voting revealed an evenly divided electorate\, with Duda winning reelection with just 51% of the total against Warsaw mayor Rafał Trzaskowski. What does this result tell us about the current state of national politics in Poland and the Law and Justice Party’s claims to a popular mandate to alter democratic institutions? Does it suggest an erosion of populist politics in Central Europe\, or is it rather an affirmation of the ruling party’s Euroscepticism and judicial reforms? Professors Anna Grzymala-Busse (political science\, Stanford) and Brian Porter-Szücs (history\, U-M) will walk us through this dynamic landscape\, discussing what it reveals about Poland’s present and what it might portend for its future.\n\nRegistration is required for this Zoom webinar at http://myumi.ch/er4dR.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at copernicus@umich.edu.

One particular aspect of this software is that it is often safety-critical\, meaning that a serious bug in the software could lead to damage to the vehicle or even loss of life. For this reason the most critical software – such as collision avoidance software – must be thoroughly verified and validated. Formal verification provides a computer-checked proof that the software satisfies a given property\, thus providing the highest level of verification and validation. In this talk I will show some recent results of my group on formally verifying several algorithms from the automobile and aerospace industries. I will first present a formal verification of several maneuvers for car collision avoidance\, including turning-only maneuvers and braking-while-swerving maneuvers. I will then show how to verify recent designs of aircraft collision avoidance systems that use neural networks\, and how to better design them so they don't exhibit bugs. Finally\, I will show how to bring formal verification to computational science\, with a verification of the Lax theorem for finite difference schemes.\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nJean-Baptiste Jeannin is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. His research focuses on formal verification of cyber-physical systems and computational schemes\, particularly applied to aerospace systems\, as well as design and analysis of programming languages. Prior to Michigan\, he was a Researcher at Samsung Research America and a Postdoctoral Fellow at Carnegie Mellon University\, working with André Platzer. He received his Ph.D. in Computer Science from Cornell University in 2013\, where he was advised by Dexter Kozen.

He oversees the agency’s relief and development operations in over 30 countries\, its refugee resettlement and assistance programs throughout the United States and the IRC’s advocacy efforts in Washington and other capitals on behalf of the world’s most vulnerable people.\n\nDavid has had a distinguished political career in the United Kingdom. From 2007 to 2010\, he served as the youngest Foreign Secretary in three decades\, driving advancements in human rights and representing the United Kingdom throughout the world. His accomplishments have earned him a reputation\, in former President Bill Clinton's words\, as \"one of the ablest\, most creative public servants of our time.” In 2016 David was named one of the World’s Greatest Leaders by Fortune Magazine and in 2018 he was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.\n\nDavid is also the author of the book\, Rescue: Refugees and the Political Crisis of Our Time. As the son of refugees\, David brings a personal commitment to the IRC's work and to the premise of the book: that we can rescue the dignity and hopes of refugees and displaced people. And if we help them\, in the process we will rescue our own values.

These impacts range from worsening enjoyment of economic and social rights to governmental reactions that violate political rights. The disproportionate rates of infection\, deaths\, and other adverse social and health impacts among historically oppressed groups in many countries highlight structural inequities and failures of states’ to protect the rights to life and health. States' approaches to the epidemic often reflect their own approaches to human rights. This panel of distinguished experts on global health and human rights will explore the impact of the pandemic on human rights\, as well as the connections between a country's human rights practices -- including its practices on the right to health -- and its response to the pandemic.

Mythical\, lyrical\, and sweeping in scope\, the novel subverts and reimagines the myths of the American West.\n\nArriving onto the literary scene with her first bestselling novel\, *The Tiger’s Wife*\, Téa Obreht writes fiction that explores themes of narrative\, myth and memory. Weaving a brilliant latticework of family legend\, loss\, and love\, Obreht’s stunning debut novel links the past and present by stories and anecdotes in an unnamed Balkan country mending from war. Rapturously received\, *The Tiger’s Wife* won the 2011 Orange Prize for Fiction\, was a 2011 National Book Award finalist\, was an international bestseller\, and was named one of the best books of the year by numerous publications including *The New York Times Book Review*\, *Publisher's Weekly*\, *Vogue*\, *The Wall Street Journal*\, and *O: The Oprah Magazine*. \n\nIn *Inland*\, Obreht's second novel\, Obreht takes on the sweeping mythology of the American West\, reimagining myths and forging new truths about the American West. An Editor's Choice\, T*he New York Times Book Review* praised *Inland*\, \"Obreht’s simple but rich prose captures and luxuriates in the West’s beauty and sudden menace. Remarkable in a novel with such a sprawling cast\, Obreht also has a poetic touch for writing intricate and precise character descriptions.” The book was named among President Obama’s summer reading list for 2019. \n\nObreht's work has been anthologized in *The Best American Short Stories* and *The Best American Non-Required Reading*\, and has appeared in *The New Yorker*\, *Harper's*\, *The Atlantic*\, *Vogue*\, *Esquire* and *Zoetrope: All-Story*\, among many others. A recipient of fellowships from the Dorothy and Lewis B. Cullman Center for Scholars and Writers at the New York Public Library and the National Endowment for the Arts\, Obreht. was named by *The New Yorker* as one of the twenty best American fiction writers under forty. She lives in New York with her husband\, and teaches at Hunter College.\n\n\nThe Zell Visiting Writers Series brings outstanding writers to campus each semester.

DESCRIPTION:Infectious diseases have been some of humanity's biggest killers. Fortunately\, we possess an evolved psychology of pathogen avoidance - a system of mental mechanisms that help us identify\, track\, and respond to such dangers\, thereby reducing risks of infection. Unfortunately\, this system is imperfect - we mistake which information is diagnostic\, leading to faulty assumptions\, pernicious attitudes\, and bad decisions. I will review recent work in our lab focusing on how we conceptualize pathogen threats and consequences of this process. Additionally\, I will discuss when our understanding of pathogen avoidance psychology can inform explanations of pandemic behavior\, and more importantly\, why it might not.\n\nZoom link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96257205534\nMeeting ID: 962 5720 5534\nPassword: cogsci UID:78467-20050321@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/78467 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Medicine,Pre Med,Pre-Health,Psychology,Public Policy LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201030T123037 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201015T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201015T190000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Advisor Development at Bank of America – Internship & Career Path Panel DESCRIPTION:Advisor Development at Bank of America – Internship & CareerPath Panel\n\nAre you interested in exploring the advisor career path?

Ressa places the tools of the free press—and her freedom—on the line in defense of truth and democracy. Ramona S. Diaz’s thrilling film follows key players from two sides of an increasingly dangerous war between press and government. As each side digs in\, we become witness to an epic and ongoing fight for the integrity of human life and truth itself—a conflict that extends beyond the Philippines into our own divisive backyard.

Wright Museum of African American History and the U-M Museum of Art\, with funding from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama explores global exchange\, commerce and the troubling histories of colonialism and slavery in the Western world. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nGhanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama’s installations are cumulative moments of reckoning\, mending\, and recycling. Things fall apart\, come undone. His constructions defy any notions of permanence and longevity. They are monuments to the in-between and the upending\, begging the question\, “What can we do?”\n\nMahama incorporates jute sacks—synonymous with the trade markets of Ghana where he lives and works—as a raw material. He works collaboratively with his community to complete the extensive sewing of the sacks required in preparation for his projects. For the U-M installations\, he incorporates materials from his previous seminal works over the last decade as a retrospective.\n\nThe markings\, stitching\, and signs of wear on the jute remind us of the many changing hands and endless labor behind international trade—the human toll of capitalism\, commodification\, and globalization. The fabric itself acts as metaphor for Ghana’s complicated history defined by Dutch colonialism and the Gold Coast slave trade\, British rule till 1957\, and a future de-railed by military coups post-independence.\n\nRather than grand gestures\, Mahama’s installations are humble acts of endurance. They are covert art take-overs\, subverting architecture and disrupting the pristine fascia of our institutional buildings. They hold us accountable for past trespasses. \n\nMahama is committed to offering his own country the same cultural opportunities and experiences available to those in the West. Most recently he designed and opened the Savannah Centre for Contemporary Arts in his hometown of Tamale Ghana\, contributing towards the expansion of his country’s contemporary art scene. An extension of his art practice\, the centre brings Mahama’s many visionary sketches to life\, creating classrooms in old airplanes\, a swimming pool for children’s play\, and public spaces for gatherings and the exchange of ideas.\n\nIn this pivotal year defined by Covid-19\, worldwide protests in support of Black Lives Matter\, climate change\, and our U.S. Presidential election in the balance\, Ibrahim Mahama’s work acknowledges failures and false promises\, but also the opportunities that can reveal themselves in times of crisis. \n\nPerhaps generations emerging from crisis can learn from the ghosts of the past and generate entirely new systems\, not motivated by profit or self-interest\, but by a deep commitment to the hard work ahead\, our willingness to do it\, and to the mutual space for dreams.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\, Institute for the Humanities and curator of In Between the World and Dreams \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is a multi-venue project led by the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, in partnership with UMMA and the Charles H.

Techniques of withholding and misdirection help us keep suspense alive in literary fiction.\n\n\nTea Obreht’s *New York Times* bestselling novel\, *Inland*\, is grounded in true but little-known history of the lawless\, drought-ridden lands of the Arizona Territory in 1893. Mythical\, lyrical\, and sweeping in scope\, the novel subverts and reimagines the myths of the American West.\n\nArriving onto the literary scene with her first bestselling novel\, *The Tiger’s Wife*\, Téa Obreht writes fiction that explores themes of narrative\, myth and memory. Weaving a brilliant latticework of family legend\, loss\, and love\, Obreht’s stunning debut novel links the past and present by stories and anecdotes in an unnamed Balkan country mending from war. Rapturously received\, *The Tiger’s Wife* won the 2011 Orange Prize for Fiction\, was a 2011 National Book Award finalist\, was an international bestseller\, and was named one of the best books of the year by numerous publications including *The New York Times Book Review*\, *Publisher's Weekly*\, *Vogue*\, *The Wall Street Journal*\, and *O: The Oprah Magazine*. \n\nIn *Inland*\, Obreht's second novel\, Obreht takes on the sweeping mythology of the American West\, reimagining myths and forging new truths about the American West. An Editor's Choice\, T*he New York Times Book Review* praised *Inland*\, \"Obreht’s simple but rich prose captures and luxuriates in the West’s beauty and sudden menace. Remarkable in a novel with such a sprawling cast\, Obreht also has a poetic touch for writing intricate and precise character descriptions.” The book was named among President Obama’s summer reading list for 2019. \n\nObreht's work has been anthologized in *The Best American Short Stories* and *The Best American Non-Required Reading*\, and has appeared in *The New Yorker*\, *Harper's*\, *The Atlantic*\, *Vogue*\, *Esquire* and *Zoetrope: All-Story*\, among many others. A recipient of fellowships from the Dorothy and Lewis B. Cullman Center for Scholars and Writers at the New York Public Library and the National Endowment for the Arts\, Obreht. was named by *The New Yorker* as one of the twenty best American fiction writers under forty. She lives in New York with her husband\, and teaches at Hunter College.\n\n\nThe Zell Visiting Writers Series brings outstanding writers to campus each semester.

Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities. Their strategies dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in a shifting American political landscape.\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund\, and the Robert and Janet Miller Fund UID:68986-17207595@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/68986 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Detroit,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n \nRead the exhibition press release here.\n \nJOIN US FOR THE GRAND OPENING AT UMMA AFTER HOURS Tuesday\, April 2 7–10 p.m.\n \nGallery talks\, live music\, and more!

We recently identified a class of small molecules that bind the human ribosome and selectively stall the translation of a small subset of proteins. I will present biochemical and cell-based experiments\, along with structures of human ribosome nascent chain complexes (RNCs) stalled by these compounds\, determined by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). These small molecules bind in the ribosome exit tunnel in a eukaryotic-specific pocket formed by the 28S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and arrest the translating ribosome through their interactions with the growing polypeptide chain. Intriguingly\, a given compound can either inhibit or enhance translation\, depending on the sequence of the protein nascent chain. These results begin to reveal how small molecules can be made to control human translation and suggest a new strategy for developing small molecules that selectively inhibit or enhance the production of proteins previously considered “undruggable.” UID:77916-19941582@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/77916 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biology,Biophysics,Chemistry,seminar,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201031T063044 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201016T120000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:CVS Health: General Management Corporate Internships and After-College Rotational Development Program Information Session (Northeast) DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn about our Corporate General Management Internship and After-College Rotational Program.

A reality which complicates these claims and separation of powers research is that bureaucrats frequently play a role in creating the laws which ultimately govern their behavior. This project examines the extent to which bureaucrats attempt to and succeed in securing their preferred statutory language. I track bills introduced at bureaucrats’ request across 11 state legislatures. Legislatures extensively draw from agencies’ expertise in forming the agenda and crafting session law\, with 9% of introduced bills and 21% of law coming from bureaucrats. A difference-in-differences analysis shows that committee chairs and legislators in the majority introduce more administration-initiated bills. Bureaucrats’ extensive involvement in crafting statutory law and increased use in less professional legislatures imply that extant statutory control studies miss an important interaction.\n\nMary Kroeger is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of North Carolina\, Chapel Hill. Her research interests are in U.S. state politics\, American political institutions\, bureaucratic-legislative interactions\, policy diffusion\, and quantitative methods.\n--\nAIG is a group of graduate students and faculty who meet to discuss American institutions.

In this workshop\, participants will learn the steps needed to plan a project for success. From identifying the team members and support you will need to formalizing relationships and crediting labor in ethical and fair ways. Instructors will lead participants through the process of writing a flexible project charter including documenting decisions and choices from team member responsibilities to technical needs such as platform choices\, project phasing and versioning. Practical and critical considerations will be discussed and covered when writing a project charter\, and how a project plan can ease the creation of documentation as well as the grant application process. By the end of the workshop\, participants will have a project template and a better understanding of the requirements needed for digital scholarship.\n\nThis workshop is part of a series\, Digital Scholarship 101. This series of workshops helps scholars avoid outdated projects\, unpreserved knowledge\, uncredited labor\, and privacy or consent issues by emphasizing process in the project life cycle. Workshop participants learn how to conceptualize the life cycle of a project using human-centered design and backwards modeling when planning their projects to better understand how to version\, archive\, and preserve their research projects. Throughout the series\, thematic questions around sustainability\, preservation\, accessibility\, privacy\, consent\, grant requirements\, and teaching with research will be examined. We encourage you to come with a project in mind and bring materials if available\, but is not required to attend.\n\nZoom link provided after registration: https://ttc.iss.lsa.umich.edu/ttc/sessions/digital-scholarship-101-planning-your-project-2/ UID:77969-19947523@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/77969 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Digital Humanities,Digital Projects,Digital Scholarship,Ds 101,Faculty,Graduate Students,Humanities,Library,Lsa,Qualitative Social Sciences,research LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210203T114618 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201016T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201016T142000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Theory: Selling two identical objects (Joint work with Sushil Bikhchandani) DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n It is well-known that optimal (i.e.\, revenue-maximizing) selling mechanisms in multidimensional type spaces may involve randomization. We study mechanisms for selling two identical\, indivisible objects to a single buyer. We analyze two settings: (i) decreasing marginal values (DMV) and (ii) increasing marginal values (IMV). Thus\, the two marginal values of the buyer are not independent. We obtain sufficient conditions on the distribution of buyer values for the existence of an optimal mechanism that is deterministic.\n In the DMV model\, we show that under a well-known condition\, it is optimal to sell the first unit deterministically. Under the same sufficient condition\, a bundling mechanism (which is deterministic) is optimal in the IMV model. Under a stronger sufficient condition\, a deterministic mechanism is optimal in the DMV model.\n Our results apply to heterogenous objects when there is a specified sequence in which the two objects must be sold.

To this day\, the absent presence of the tenth Panchen Lama looms large in those regions\, where Tibetans lament the loss of his advocacy and voice amidst intensifying state-led development pressures. She takes up Uradyn Bulag's critique to reject the positivist\, textualist\, and statist premises of \"oral history\" in favor of a linguistic anthropological approach to narrative as a multimodal and dialogic process of (dis)embodying selves and others in spaces and times. Professor Makley asks\, in the context of intensifying surveillance and central state-led censorship\, can our Tibetan interlocutors' awkward silences and earnest affirmations\, the un- or under-said of their stories about the tenth Panchen Lama\, be taken as a politics of refusal that\, in the telling\, itself works to re-constitute his fugitive presence\, and by proxy that of a Tibetan sociality and future currently being erased?\n \n Charlene Makley is Professor of Anthropology at Reed College in Portland\, Oregon. Her work has explored the history and cultural politics of state-building\, state-led development and Buddhist revival among Tibetans in China's restive frontier zone (SE Qinghai and SW Gansu provinces) since 1992. Her analyses draw especially on methodologies from linguistic and economic anthropology\, gender and media studies\, and studies of religion and ritual that unpack the semiotic and pragmatic specificities of intersubjective communication\, exchange\, personhood and value. Her first book\, \"The Violence of Liberation: Gender and Tibetan Buddhist Revival in Post-Mao China\,\" was published by University of Californian Press in 2007. Her second book\, \"The Battle for Fortune: State-Led Development\, Personhood and Power among Tibetans in China\,\" published in 2018 by Cornell University Press and the Weatherhead East Asia Institute at Columbia University\, is an ethnography of state-local relations in the historically Tibetan region of Rebgong (SE Qinghai province) in the wake of China's Great Open the West campaign and during the 2008 military crackdown on Tibetan unrest. The book brings anthropological theories of states\, development and personhood into dialogue with recent interdisciplinary debates about the very nature of human subjectivity\, agency\, and relations with nonhuman others (including deities).\n\nZoom webinar registration: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_wxxn3CL2QUCltYYupoSFKw\n \nFor more information about her research projects\, publications\, courses\, and media archives\, visit her website: http://academic.reed.edu/anthro/makley/index.html or her Academia.edu page: https://reed.academia.edu/CharleneMakley.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

We have previously argued that this Temporal Contiguity Effect arises from fundamental memory mechanisms that operate whenever episodic memories are encoded and retrieved. Consistent with this interpretation\, the Temporal Contiguity Effect is pervasive and robust: almost without exception\, studies that have looked for it\, have found it. But perhaps we have not looked hard enough. The vast majority of these studies use deliberate list learning tasks\, such tasks likely recruit many strategic control processes that would be unique to rote learning. Thus\, one can doubt whether the contiguity effect should be elevated to the status of a general principle of memory as suggested by some theories. To explore this concern\, I draw together data from recent work in my lab. This work shows that the Temporal Contiguity Effect is real—it is not a phenomenon of rote learning. However\, the work also shows that we are a long way from a full understanding of how temporal associations interact with the control processes that govern memory encoding and search.

It was the first legislation for women’s voting rights. Not until the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965 were voting rights of ALL women protected and enforced\, and intimidation tactics progressively eliminated.  The Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote poster campaign\, organized by AIGA in partnership with the League of Women Voters\, commemorates this milestone. A core group of invited women of design submitted the first 65 non-partisan posters\, to launch the initiative with their vision and voices. Through the posters\, these women joined forces to collectively contribute to dialogue in design and society. This moment in history is an incredible opportunity to catalyze women in design\, voting rights\, citizenship\, community\, and diversity. The collection aspires to not only support present day voter participation\, but to also serve as a backdrop for discourse and examination of the history of voting rights and women’s fight for equality.  The poster initiative continues at aiga.org/vote\, where AIGA members can contribute posters to motivate the American public to register and turn out to vote in the 2020 general election\, as well as local elections to come. Posters are available for free download online.\n\nThe Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote exhibition at Stamps Gallery includes a selection of the 65 posters chosen by a committee of Stamps faculty\, students\, and staff including Nicholas Dowgwillo\, Eloise Janssen\, Keesa V.

Intentionally minimal\, each image distills an interaction\, traumatic incident\, or power imbalance into an accessible visual narrative. Recognizable objects such as chairs\, roots\, ladders\, or spotlights set the stage for the story to unfold. Events are captured midstream\, suspended in time like a felt film still.\n\nThe exhibition is inspired\, in part\, by the courage\, testimony\, and experiences of women (like Christine Blasey Ford) who publicly report assault\, harassment\, or misconduct. The #MeToo movement gave voice to thousands of women to tell their personal stories\, but also exposed a hostile backlash meant to silence them. The title\, “Real and Imagined\,” is a deliberate contradiction\; if one is true\, the other must not be. In practice\, however\, both terms are used to reference a woman’s testimony and determine how it is publicly interpreted. Her account is accepted as truthful by many and simultaneously dismissed as imaginary by the court of public opinion: “her memory is wrong\,” “she imagined it.”\n\nThe works in “Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations” make difficult conversations and relationships tangible by stripping them down to their essentials.\n\nWordless physical gestures highlight the psychological and emotional forces at play behind even the smallest of interactions.\n\nBiography\nHeidi Kumao has created award-winning experimental films\, video installations\, cinema machines\, electronic clothing\, and kinetic sculptures. She has exhibited her work in solo and group exhibitions nationally and internationally including shows at Art Science Museum Singapore\, Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona\, Fundació Joan Miró (Barcelona)\, and Museu da Imagem e do Som (São Paulo). She has received fellowships from the Creative Capital Foundation\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and the New York Foundation for the Arts. She is a professor at the Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan.\n\nFall 2020 Hours and Policies\nBeginning September 15\, 2020\, Stamps Gallery will be open to University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students on Tuesdays and Fridays from 2-7 pm.\nAll visitors must have a valid M-Card to enter Stamps Gallery.

The history of the Caucasus in general\, and Armenia in particular\, is replete with examples of individuals and groups reworking – or resisting – artistic\, social\, and religious elements from their neighbors in a complex and ongoing process of cultural negotiation\, transcending any single language or territory.\n \n This workshop will examine the history of the Caucasus from a long-neglected site of encounter – the combination and recombination of multiple media and forms of cultural production. In what ways might\, for instance\, medieval Armenian ballads\, heterographic wonder tales\, or modern filmmaking mediate different histories of shared\, fraught space? How do the past and present meet and negotiate the meaning of the other in various forms of cultural labor? Or\, more simply: how might a history of this space and its shared regions morph and shift across different media?\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at armenianstudies@umich.edu.

The correspondence relies on the fact that many asymptotic neural networks are drawn from Gaussian processes\, the analog of non-interacting field theories. Moving away from the asymptotic limit yields a non-Gaussian process and corresponds to turning on particle interactions\, allowing for the computation of correlation functions of neural network outputs with Feynman diagrams. Minimal non-Gaussian process likelihoods are determined by the most relevant non-Gaussian terms\, according to the flow in their coefficients induced by the Wilsonian renormalization group. This yields a direct connection between overparameterization and simplicity of neural network likelihoods. Whether the coefficients are constants or functions may be understood in terms of GP limit symmetries\, as expected from 't Hooft's technical naturalness. General theoretical calculations are matched to neural network experiments in the simplest class of models allowing the correspondence. Our formalism is valid for any of the many architectures that becomes a GP in an asymptotic limit\, a property preserved under certain types of training.

Unlike current theorizations of primitive accumulation that prioritize explicit expropriation for capitalist production\, my account\ncenters on the role of temporality in the Maasai political struggle to illustrate how the material and symbolic dimensions of primitive accumulation interlock. I show how states and conservationist groups justify and naturalize colonial and capitalist organizations of space by\ndrawing temporal distinctions between nature and civilization and between non-capitalist and capitalist systems. This study locates temporality as a key dimension of analysis and political struggle. It analyzes how efforts to mitigate the harms of capitalism often reproduce its temporality to the detriment of colonized peoples\, and it provokes engagement with Indigenous conceptions of time that generate critical approaches to human and environmental relations.\n\n--\nThe Political Theory Workshop provides a venue for political theory-oriented scholarship broadly construed. Participants include theoretically-inclined members of social science and humanities departments across the University of Michigan\, as well as institutions throughout southwest Michigan.

Large impacts likely dominated the evolution of all ancient planetary crusts. Despite their important role\, the formation of multiring basins and their concentric topographic rings is poorly understood. In this talk I will present simulations of the formation of lunar multiring basins that directly resolve ring formation and reproduce basin gravity signatures. We find that the resultant basin structure is sensitive to impactor size and thermomechanical state of the target interior. Simulations of the formation of Venusian multiring basins imply relatively low lithospheric thermal gradients and imply Venus is not in a mobile lid convection regime. We also discuss how formation of Valhalla-class multiring basins on ocean worlds may provide insight into the thickness of the icy shells they form in.

Those of us who work in schools and departments of music often do many things and have multiple roles to play. As researchers\, we may teach about the world's musical traditions\, the musical traditions of the U.S. and the Americas\, and the particular cultures\, people\, and genres we have researched in depth. In our roles as citizens of the university or college where we teach\, we often take on other roles as performers\, composers\, music theorists\, music educators\, music historians\, and administrators. In my own career these last three roles have figured most prominently. To these roles I have brought the values inherent in the discipline of ethnomusicology: advocating for diversity\, equity\, and inclusion and opposing ethnocentrism and racism. This presentation examines my own life-long experiences in such institutions\, including course and curricular innovations that express these values. Among other things\, I discuss my recent attempt to move the curriculum of a school of music away from the eurocentrism at its core by becoming\, in effect\, a music historian. And I conclude with some reflections on why moving away from ethnocentrism to inclusion in schools of music has proven so difficult and one approach to doing so. \n
Timothy Rice\, Distinguished Professor\, Emeritus\, of ethnomusicology at the University of California\, Los Angeles (UCLA)\, has written many books and articles about the traditional music of Bulgaria and Macedonia. He also writes about theory and method in ethnomusicology\, including Ethnomusicology: A Very Short Introduction (Oxford University Press\, 2014) and Modeling Ethnomusicology (Oxford University Press\, 2017). He was the editor of the journal Ethnomusicology (1981-1984)\; the founding co-editor of the ten-volume Garland Encyclopedia of World Music (1992-2002)\; and the President of the Society for Ethnomusicology (SEM\, 2003-2005).

Most of the policies were aimed at assimilation. For many years Native Americans were forced to live by standards set by the United States. But with the formation of the American Indian Movement\, they started to fight back. Learn about the beginnings of the American Indian Movement and the organized protests that they led including the Occupation of Alcatraz and Wounded Knee. And also learn how the activism of the 1960's lives on today and how we are dealing with issues in the Native community today.\n\nHeather Bruegl\, a member of the Oneida Nation of Wisconsin\, is a graduate of Madonna University in Michigan and holds a Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts in U.S. History. Inspired by a trip to Wounded Knee\, South Dakota\, a passion for Native American History was born.

Wright Museum of African American History and the U-M Museum of Art\, with funding from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama explores global exchange\, commerce and the troubling histories of colonialism and slavery in the Western world. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nGhanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama’s installations are cumulative moments of reckoning\, mending\, and recycling. Things fall apart\, come undone. His constructions defy any notions of permanence and longevity. They are monuments to the in-between and the upending\, begging the question\, “What can we do?”\n\nMahama incorporates jute sacks—synonymous with the trade markets of Ghana where he lives and works—as a raw material. He works collaboratively with his community to complete the extensive sewing of the sacks required in preparation for his projects. For the U-M installations\, he incorporates materials from his previous seminal works over the last decade as a retrospective.\n\nThe markings\, stitching\, and signs of wear on the jute remind us of the many changing hands and endless labor behind international trade—the human toll of capitalism\, commodification\, and globalization. The fabric itself acts as metaphor for Ghana’s complicated history defined by Dutch colonialism and the Gold Coast slave trade\, British rule till 1957\, and a future de-railed by military coups post-independence.\n\nRather than grand gestures\, Mahama’s installations are humble acts of endurance. They are covert art take-overs\, subverting architecture and disrupting the pristine fascia of our institutional buildings. They hold us accountable for past trespasses. \n\nMahama is committed to offering his own country the same cultural opportunities and experiences available to those in the West. Most recently he designed and opened the Savannah Centre for Contemporary Arts in his hometown of Tamale Ghana\, contributing towards the expansion of his country’s contemporary art scene. An extension of his art practice\, the centre brings Mahama’s many visionary sketches to life\, creating classrooms in old airplanes\, a swimming pool for children’s play\, and public spaces for gatherings and the exchange of ideas.\n\nIn this pivotal year defined by Covid-19\, worldwide protests in support of Black Lives Matter\, climate change\, and our U.S. Presidential election in the balance\, Ibrahim Mahama’s work acknowledges failures and false promises\, but also the opportunities that can reveal themselves in times of crisis. \n\nPerhaps generations emerging from crisis can learn from the ghosts of the past and generate entirely new systems\, not motivated by profit or self-interest\, but by a deep commitment to the hard work ahead\, our willingness to do it\, and to the mutual space for dreams.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\, Institute for the Humanities and curator of In Between the World and Dreams \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is a multi-venue project led by the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, in partnership with UMMA and the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History\, Detroit. \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is made possible by a grant from The Andrew W.

It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n \nRead the exhibition press release here.\n \nJOIN US FOR THE GRAND OPENING AT UMMA AFTER HOURS Tuesday\, April 2 7–10 p.m.\n \nGallery talks\, live music\, and more!

Wright Museum of African American History and the U-M Museum of Art\, with funding from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama explores global exchange\, commerce and the troubling histories of colonialism and slavery in the Western world. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nGhanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama’s installations are cumulative moments of reckoning\, mending\, and recycling. Things fall apart\, come undone. His constructions defy any notions of permanence and longevity. They are monuments to the in-between and the upending\, begging the question\, “What can we do?”\n\nMahama incorporates jute sacks—synonymous with the trade markets of Ghana where he lives and works—as a raw material. He works collaboratively with his community to complete the extensive sewing of the sacks required in preparation for his projects. For the U-M installations\, he incorporates materials from his previous seminal works over the last decade as a retrospective.\n\nThe markings\, stitching\, and signs of wear on the jute remind us of the many changing hands and endless labor behind international trade—the human toll of capitalism\, commodification\, and globalization. The fabric itself acts as metaphor for Ghana’s complicated history defined by Dutch colonialism and the Gold Coast slave trade\, British rule till 1957\, and a future de-railed by military coups post-independence.\n\nRather than grand gestures\, Mahama’s installations are humble acts of endurance. They are covert art take-overs\, subverting architecture and disrupting the pristine fascia of our institutional buildings. They hold us accountable for past trespasses. \n\nMahama is committed to offering his own country the same cultural opportunities and experiences available to those in the West. Most recently he designed and opened the Savannah Centre for Contemporary Arts in his hometown of Tamale Ghana\, contributing towards the expansion of his country’s contemporary art scene. An extension of his art practice\, the centre brings Mahama’s many visionary sketches to life\, creating classrooms in old airplanes\, a swimming pool for children’s play\, and public spaces for gatherings and the exchange of ideas.\n\nIn this pivotal year defined by Covid-19\, worldwide protests in support of Black Lives Matter\, climate change\, and our U.S. Presidential election in the balance\, Ibrahim Mahama’s work acknowledges failures and false promises\, but also the opportunities that can reveal themselves in times of crisis. \n\nPerhaps generations emerging from crisis can learn from the ghosts of the past and generate entirely new systems\, not motivated by profit or self-interest\, but by a deep commitment to the hard work ahead\, our willingness to do it\, and to the mutual space for dreams.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\, Institute for the Humanities and curator of In Between the World and Dreams \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is a multi-venue project led by the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, in partnership with UMMA and the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History\, Detroit. \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is made possible by a grant from The Andrew W.

Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities. Their strategies dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in a shifting American political landscape.\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund\, and the Robert and Janet Miller Fund UID:68986-17207597@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/68986 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Detroit,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n \nRead the exhibition press release here.\n \nJOIN US FOR THE GRAND OPENING AT UMMA AFTER HOURS Tuesday\, April 2 7–10 p.m.\n \nGallery talks\, live music\, and more!

DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nBorderline personality disorder (BPD) is considered a severe form of psychopathology associated with a host of negative outcomes. Empirical evidence suggests high prevalence of BPD diagnosis among sexual and gender minority samples. Non-cisgender identity has been historically equated with BPD diagnosis\, the improper diagnosis of which imposes potential barriers to accessing appropriate gender affirming care. In addition\, sexual and gender minority populations contend with greater psychosocial stress and exhibit higher rates of common forms of psychopathology than their heterosexual cisgender peers. Limited evidence suggests that higher prevalence of BPD diagnosis among sexual and gender minority individuals might not accurately index underlying BPD-pathology levels among these populations. Further\, current conceptualization and treatment recommendations for BPD diagnosis diverge in subtle\, yet potentially detrimental\, ways from evidence-based treatment principles for sexual and gender minority individuals. In the current talk\, I will present the results from 3 studies incorporating a transdiagnostic factors approach—consistent with the Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP) model—to examining bias in the diagnosis of BPD among sexual and gender minority individuals.

Using 1900-1930 decennial census data\, we document literacy for the 1900 through 1930 period and for birth cohorts from 1830 through 1920. We thus provide for American Indians a large-scale picture of the history of literacy. We document the pace and extent of Indian literacy from very low for the birth cohorts of the early 1800s to fairly universal for the cohorts of the early 1900s. We also demonstrate that the increases in Indian literacy were closely related to birth cohort\, with successive new birth cohorts having higher levels of literacy. We found little evidence that increases in literacy from 1900 to 1930 happened because adults increased their literacy after the school years and as they matured across the adult life course. We also document important gender differences in Native American literacy\, with the proportion literate being lower for women than for men\, but with the gender gap decreasing in later birth cohorts. There were also substantial literacy inequalities across geographical regions of the country-ranging from 19 to 74 percent literate across regions in 1900. The trajectories of literacy attainment also varied across regions in interesting ways. We also document that Indian literacy was higher among those living in urban areas\, those more integrated into the Euro-American community\, and those with Euro-American ancestry.\n\nhttps://ssai.isr.umich.edu/\n\nContact PSC Office for Zoom details.\n\n\nBIO:\nArland Thornton is Professor of Sociology\, Population Studies\, and Survey Research at the University of Michigan\, where he is also associated with the \, Native American Studies Program and several Centers within the International Institute.

Many models exist that help us describe various aspects of human learning or let us evaluate competing theories. It is harder to find models that specify processing at a level that is detailed enough to allow a computer system to actually perform human-like learning. This talk presents some of my thesis work that extends a model of human procedural learning to have more specific computational detail. In the process\, I also extend the model by discovering connections with prior theoretical work in human skill acquisition and some neuroscience.

My lab studies the many roles that RNA binding proteins have in affecting RNA expression\, splicing\, transport and translation. Through our studies on RNA processing\, we have introduced therapeutic strategies to treat neurodegenerative and muscular diseases\, built cellular models of neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative diseases and developed experimental and computational tools that enable the community to probe RNA binding protein-RNA interactions at scale. I will discuss (1) our established and new technologies to identify RNA targets of human RBPs at scale\, (2) systematic assays to assign molecular roles to RBPs and (2) functional screens to identify RBPs implicated in cancer / RNA granule formation.

The business environment was not spared in this disruption\, as customers\, the workforce\, workplace environments and supply chains were each turned upside-down\, almost overnight. Operating practices needed to be challenged\, re-engineered and re-adopted – at the speed of business. That is akin to replacing the aircraft engine while the plane is mid-flight.\n\nThe challenge faced by business leaders from the outset of the pandemic\, and remains true today\, is that objective\, analytical information on the state of the virus was and remains woefully inadequate. Further\, every organization operating in multiple geographical and political jurisdictions has to navigate different and every-changing rules governing the ability to conduct operations.\n\nIn mid-March\, I launched an effort to build a repository of critical virus-related information (tests\, positives\, infections\, recoveries\, fatalities) at various levels of granularity – world\, country\, state or province\, and metropolitan area. From this\, I established a daily reporting mechanism and underlying analyses\, designed to equip business leaders\, economic and investment advisors and clinicians with insight about the state of the virus spread and underlying trends. My intent was to inform these leaders with actionable intelligence\, free of both the fearmongering and denial perspectives that were dominating the general and social media.\n\nThese efforts have resulted in my direct engagement with four organizations’ operational planning efforts around the pandemic: two for-profit organizations involved in the manufacture and distribution of critical medical/life sciences products to consumers around the globe\, a not-for-profit agency supporting families of critically-ill children and a governmental agency charged with administering a state-wide pandemic response effort. Additionally\, I provide daily reports on the state of the virus to an estimated 2\,000 clinicians\, health organization managers\, economists and investment managers.\n\nThese lessons provide strong insight for the analytical practitioner. Through this effort\, I have discovered the challenges of making actionable sense of data from a novel virus . . . in real-time. Data sources and definitions are in constant flux\, external reporting lacks analytical rigor\, and\, new knowledge frequently trumps previously held scientific beliefs. More profoundly\, models reported on and used extensively by government officials are often accepted as dogma but\, may be nothing more than assumptions built upon several more layers of assumptions.\n\nMark currently serves as the Board Chair of Crown Healthcare Laundry Inc.\, a Quilvest Private Equity-portfolio company and as Strategic Advisor to Terso Solutions Inc.\, a subsidiary of Promega that provides Real Time Location Services (RTLS) for field-based inventory of leading medical implant and biotech companies. \n\nHe previously served as chief strategist and business intelligence officer for Owens & Minor\, Inc.\; as a Partner in the healthcare consulting practice at Ernst & Young\, where he launched the firm’s health care supply chain practice\; and as a Management Engineer at the Detroit Medical Center. \n\nMark also serves on the National Advisory Board of the Congenital Heart Center at C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital at the University of Michigan\, and on the Advisory Board of the Medical Device Supply Chain Council. He recently completed two terms on the Board of the Bellwether League Inc. \n\nIn the midst of the COVID-19 situation\, Mark is producing an objective and analytical daily report on the virus progression in the US and worldwide. This report has become a go-to source for nearly 2\,000 physicians\, scientists\, health system and supplier executives\, economists\, investment bankers and\, one former head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.\n\nMark holds an MBA from the Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan and a Bachelor of Science in Industrial & Operations Engineering\, also from the University of Michigan.\n\nThis seminar series is presented by the U-M Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS): Our mission is to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery through a multi-disciplinary\, systems-engineering approach.

A related installation at the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery can be viewed (and heard) from a sidewalk window. There will also be an installation inside the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nOct. 1-23: Large-Scale Public Art Installation\, U-M Museum of Art\, 525 S.

After Lewis petitioned Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to help integrate a segregated school in his hometown of Troy\, Alabama\, King sent “the boy from Troy” a round trip bus ticket to meet with him. From that meeting onward\, Lewis became one of King’s closest allies. He organized Freedom Rides that left him bloodied or jailed\, and stood at the front lines in the historic marches on Washington and Selma. He never lost the spirit of the “boy from Troy” and called on his fellow Americans to get into “good trouble” until his passing on July 17\, 2020.\n\n96 Minutes.

OLLI membership is not required.\n\nThere have been tremendous racial\, ethnic\, economic\, and geographic disparities in COVID-19 cases and outcomes. There are multiple causes of health disparities that pre-dated COVID-19 that have been amplified during the pandemic. We have learned multiple lessons in Flint to better understand the sources of health disparities and strategies to prevent and reduce the inequitable impact of COVID-19 on socially vulnerable communities. These lessons provide valuable insights on longer-term strategies to address health inequities beyond COVID-19.\n\nOur two speakers will discuss these lessons and more:\n\nDebra Furr-Holden\, Ph.D.\, is the Associate Dean for Public Health Integration and Director of the Flint Center for Health Equity Solutions and MSU Co-Director of the Healthy Flint Research Coordinating Center. \n\nShe is an epidemiologist and classically trained public health professional with expertise in drug and alcohol dependence epidemiology\, psychiatric epidemiology\, and prevention science. She received a Bachelor’s Degree in Natural Sciences and Public Health from Johns Hopkins University Krieger School of Arts and Sciences and a PhD in Public Health from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.\n\nLawrence Reynolds\, M.D.\, a pediatrician for 41 years\, has been deeply involved in health and health advocacy\, especially for underserved parts of the Flint community\, for most of his career. \n\nHe was president and CEO of the Mott Children’s Health Center\, a board member of the Hamilton Family Health Network\, president of the Genesee County Medical Society\, and many other initiatives. During the Flint water crisis\, he was a member of then-Gov. Rick Snyder’s Flint Water Advisory Task Force and the Flint Water Interagency Coordinating Committee. He is also the newly appointed health advisor to the City of Flint Mayor and is an at-large director of the Greater Flint Health Coalition. \n\nHe is a graduate of Howard University College of Medicine and a National Health Service Corps Scholarship recipient.\n\nZoom Link to join this programming: \nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/91515351120 \nWebinar ID: 91515351120 UID:75655-19552875@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/75655 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Covid-19,Free,Leadership,Lecture,Lifelong Learning,Politics,Public Health,Retirement,Social Impact,Social Justice,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201013T102753 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201020T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201020T110000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:U.S.-China relations during COVID-19: Finding a path forward DESCRIPTION:Join the conversation: #policytalks.\n\nPanelists:\n\nKen Lieberthal\, senior fellow emeritus in the Foreign Policy program at Brookings\n\nMary Gallagher\, Professor of Political Science\, Director of the Center for Chinese Studies\, and faculty associate at the Center for Comparative Political Studies at the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan\n\nAnn Lin\, Associate Professor of Public Policy in the Gerald R.

Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities.

It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n \nRead the exhibition press release here.\n \nJOIN US FOR THE GRAND OPENING AT UMMA AFTER HOURS Tuesday\, April 2 7–10 p.m.\n \nGallery talks\, live music\, and more!

In this framework\, we construct contact networks based on synthetic population datasets specific for Washtenaw County that are derived from US Census datasets. We assign individuals to households\, workplaces\, schools\, and group quarters (such as prisons or long term care facilities). In addition\, we assign casual contacts to each individual at random. Using this framework\, we explicitly simulate Michigan-specific government-mandated workplace and school closures as well as social distancing measures. We perform sensitivity analyses to identify key model parameters and mechanisms contributing to the observed disease burden in the three months following the first observed cases of COVID-19 in Michigan. We then consider several scenarios for relaxing restrictions and reopening workplaces to predict what actions would be most prudent. In particular\, we consider the effects of 1) different timings for reopening\, and 2) different levels of workplace vs. casual contact re-engagement. Through simulations and sensitivity analyses\, we explore mechanisms driving the magnitude and timing of a second wave of infections upon re-opening.\n\nThis work is based on Dr. Renardy's *paper in press* in the *Journal of Theoretical Biology* with coauthors:\nMarisa Eisenberg\, UM Complex Systems & Math (LSA) and Epidemiology (Public Health)\nDenise Kirschner\, UM Department of Microbiology & Immunology (Medical School) UID:76629-19733025@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/76629 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,computing,Coronavirus,data,Health Data,Medicine,Natural Sciences,Public Health,Research,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201020T113114 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201020T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201020T125000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Human Capital\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2): Structural Change\, Inequality\, and Capital Flows DESCRIPTION:To join the seminar\, please visit the following webpage. \nhttps://sites.google.com/view/h2d2/seminars UID:78689-20105425@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/78689 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200927T211837 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201020T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201020T130000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LHS Collaboratory-LHS as a Driver of Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion DESCRIPTION:Healthcare and health remain unconscionably inequitable. This year\, the disproportionate toll the COVID-19 pandemic has taken on those historically least well-served by our health system\, has highlighted the pressing societal challenge of health disparities.\n\nBeyond simply striving to do no harm\, Learning Health Systems (LHSs) have the potential to serve as forces for justice in healthcare and health\; indeed\, they can be powerful drivers of diversity\, equity\, and inclusion. LHSs are anchored in multi-stakeholder consensus Core Values that explicitly incorporate principles such as inclusiveness\, transparency\, and accessibility. Their proximal goal is \"to efficiently and equitably serve the learning needs of all participants\, as well as the overall public good.\"\n\nThe October 2020 LHS Collaboratory will share lessons from health advocates working on the front lines to make healthcare and health more equitable. These thought leaders and do-ers will illuminate the transformative power of LHSs - and the diverse and inclusive communities of interest that are collaborating to realize them.\n\nModerator: \nJoshua C.

The goal of the Wolf lab is to understand synaptic mechanisms that maintain this persistent vulnerability to relapse. \n\nMost of our studies use the incubation of craving model. Incubation refers to the progressive increase in cue-induced craving that develops after discontinuing drug self-administration. Craving remains at high (incubated) levels for months. Incubation of craving also occurs in humans. \n\nOur work has focused on excitatory synapses in the nucleus accumbens\, a key brain region for motivated behavior. My talk will describe published and unpublished work showing profound alterations in all of the major glutamate receptors in the NAc (AMPA\, NMDA and metabotropic glutamate receptors) after incubation of cocaine craving and the role of protein translation in mediating this plasticity.

See the webinar registration link below.\n \n In this talk\, Professor Makley thinks through the implications of her collaborative work with Tibetans in northern Amdo (Qinghai province) to tell\, hear\, see and record stories of the late tenth Panchen Lama (1938-1989)\, the controversial yet beloved Buddhist figure who returned to Amdo in the early 1980s after fourteen years of Maoist detention in a series of triumphant\, recuperative tours of rural Tibetan regions. To this day\, the absent presence of the tenth Panchen Lama looms large in those regions\, where Tibetans lament the loss of his advocacy and voice amidst intensifying state-led development pressures. She takes up Uradyn Bulag's critique to reject the positivist\, textualist\, and statist premises of \"oral history\" in favor of a linguistic anthropological approach to narrative as a multimodal and dialogic process of (dis)embodying selves and others in spaces and times. Professor Makley asks\, in the context of intensifying surveillance and central state-led censorship\, can our Tibetan interlocutors' awkward silences and earnest affirmations\, the un- or under-said of their stories about the tenth Panchen Lama\, be taken as a politics of refusal that\, in the telling\, itself works to re-constitute his fugitive presence\, and by proxy that of a Tibetan sociality and future currently being erased?\n\nZoom Registration Link: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_a6dgE3GhRcqeCnlegYA7kA\n \n Charlene Makley is Professor of Anthropology at Reed College in Portland\, Oregon. Her work has explored the history and cultural politics of state-building\, state-led development and Buddhist revival among Tibetans in China's restive frontier zone (SE Qinghai and SW Gansu provinces) since 1992. Her analyses draw especially on methodologies from linguistic and economic anthropology\, gender and media studies\, and studies of religion and ritual that unpack the semiotic and pragmatic specificities of intersubjective communication\, exchange\, personhood and value. Her first book\, \"The Violence of Liberation: Gender and Tibetan Buddhist Revival in Post-Mao China\,\" was published by University of Californian Press in 2007. Her second book\, \"The Battle for Fortune: State-Led Development\, Personhood and Power among Tibetans in China\,\" published in 2018 by Cornell University Press and the Weatherhead East Asia Institute at Columbia University\, is an ethnography of state-local relations in the historically Tibetan region of Rebgong (SE Qinghai province) in the wake of China's Great Open the West campaign and during the 2008 military crackdown on Tibetan unrest. The book brings anthropological theories of states\, development and personhood into dialogue with recent interdisciplinary debates about the very nature of human subjectivity\, agency\, and relations with nonhuman others (including deities).\n \n For more information about her research projects\, publications\, courses\, and media archives\, visit her website: http://academic.reed.edu/anthro/makley/index.html\, or her Academia.edu page: https://reed.academia.edu/CharleneMakley.

It was the first legislation for women’s voting rights. Not until the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965 were voting rights of ALL women protected and enforced\, and intimidation tactics progressively eliminated.  The Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote poster campaign\, organized by AIGA in partnership with the League of Women Voters\, commemorates this milestone. A core group of invited women of design submitted the first 65 non-partisan posters\, to launch the initiative with their vision and voices. Through the posters\, these women joined forces to collectively contribute to dialogue in design and society. This moment in history is an incredible opportunity to catalyze women in design\, voting rights\, citizenship\, community\, and diversity. The collection aspires to not only support present day voter participation\, but to also serve as a backdrop for discourse and examination of the history of voting rights and women’s fight for equality.  The poster initiative continues at aiga.org/vote\, where AIGA members can contribute posters to motivate the American public to register and turn out to vote in the 2020 general election\, as well as local elections to come. Posters are available for free download online.\n\nThe Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote exhibition at Stamps Gallery includes a selection of the 65 posters chosen by a committee of Stamps faculty\, students\, and staff including Nicholas Dowgwillo\, Eloise Janssen\, Keesa V. Johnson\, Francis Nunoo-Quarcoo\, Endi Poskovic\, Destini Riley\, and Stamps Gallery.

After Lewis petitioned Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to help integrate a segregated school in his hometown of Troy\, Alabama\, King sent “the boy from Troy” a round trip bus ticket to meet with him. From that meeting onward\, Lewis became one of King’s closest allies. He organized Freedom Rides that left him bloodied or jailed\, and stood at the front lines in the historic marches on Washington and Selma. He never lost the spirit of the “boy from Troy” and called on his fellow Americans to get into “good trouble” until his passing on July 17\, 2020.\n\n96 Minutes.

Intentionally minimal\, each image distills an interaction\, traumatic incident\, or power imbalance into an accessible visual narrative. Recognizable objects such as chairs\, roots\, ladders\, or spotlights set the stage for the story to unfold. Events are captured midstream\, suspended in time like a felt film still.\n\nThe exhibition is inspired\, in part\, by the courage\, testimony\, and experiences of women (like Christine Blasey Ford) who publicly report assault\, harassment\, or misconduct. The #MeToo movement gave voice to thousands of women to tell their personal stories\, but also exposed a hostile backlash meant to silence them. The title\, “Real and Imagined\,” is a deliberate contradiction\; if one is true\, the other must not be. In practice\, however\, both terms are used to reference a woman’s testimony and determine how it is publicly interpreted. Her account is accepted as truthful by many and simultaneously dismissed as imaginary by the court of public opinion: “her memory is wrong\,” “she imagined it.”\n\nThe works in “Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations” make difficult conversations and relationships tangible by stripping them down to their essentials.\n\nWordless physical gestures highlight the psychological and emotional forces at play behind even the smallest of interactions.\n\nBiography\nHeidi Kumao has created award-winning experimental films\, video installations\, cinema machines\, electronic clothing\, and kinetic sculptures. She has exhibited her work in solo and group exhibitions nationally and internationally including shows at Art Science Museum Singapore\, Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona\, Fundació Joan Miró (Barcelona)\, and Museu da Imagem e do Som (São Paulo). She has received fellowships from the Creative Capital Foundation\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and the New York Foundation for the Arts. She is a professor at the Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan.\n\nFall 2020 Hours and Policies\nBeginning September 15\, 2020\, Stamps Gallery will be open to University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students on Tuesdays and Fridays from 2-7 pm.\nAll visitors must have a valid M-Card to enter Stamps Gallery.

Stamps School of Art & Design.\n\nStamps Gallery is an incubator and lab for contemporary artists and designers to explore ideas and projects that catalyze positive social change. As the pandemic grips our nation it has exposed the social\, political\, and economic disparities that have disproportionately impacted Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color. The world witnessed in horror and sadness the meaningless loss of African American lives with George Floyd\, Breonna Taylor\, Ahmaud Arbery\, among many others that we will never know. National and international outcries brought people together from multiple races\, genders\, and generations - on social media and in the streets - to publicly demand an end to police brutality\, structural racism\, and emphasizing that Black Lives Matter. What is the role of a university gallery in this time of crisis? How can we foster an inclusive platform for the stakeholders in our community to voice their ideas and foster a community based on equality\, belonging\, respect? We found inspiration in the thoughtful words of renowned civil rights leader and Congressman John Lewis (1940-2020) who wrote\, “My fellow Americans\, this is a special moment in our history.

Stamps School of Art & Design.\n\nStamps Gallery is an incubator and lab for contemporary artists and designers to explore ideas and projects that catalyze positive social change. As the pandemic grips our nation it has exposed the social\, political\, and economic disparities that have disproportionately impacted Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color. The world witnessed in horror and sadness the meaningless loss of African American lives with George Floyd\, Breonna Taylor\, Ahmaud Arbery\, among many others that we will never know. National and international outcries brought people together from multiple races\, genders\, and generations - on social media and in the streets - to publicly demand an end to police brutality\, structural racism\, and emphasizing that Black Lives Matter. What is the role of a university gallery in this time of crisis? How can we foster an inclusive platform for the stakeholders in our community to voice their ideas and foster a community based on equality\, belonging\, respect? We found inspiration in the thoughtful words of renowned civil rights leader and Congressman John Lewis (1940-2020) who wrote\, “My fellow Americans\, this is a special moment in our history. Just as people of all faiths and no faiths\, and all backgrounds\, creeds\, and colors banded together decades ago to fight for equality and justice in a peaceful\, orderly\, non-violent fashion\, we must do so again.” His powerful words are a reminder for all of us - present and future generations to stay hopeful\, proactive\, and resilient in our collective efforts to end racial discrimination and foster a true democracy. \n\nIn this spirit\, Stamps Gallery invited the undergraduate and graduate students at Penny W.

The southern portion of the North Carolina coast has consistently provided more than 50 percent of the wild harvest in the state\, which has been driving interest in creating new oyster farms throughout the region. Simultaneously\, increased interest in shellfish aquaculture has placed pressure on resource managers making siting decisions. New farms provide an opportunity to assess conditions after farm installation\, making North Carolina estuaries an ideal place to explore the ecosystem services of shellfish farming. This project aimed to link small-scale changes around oyster farms with larger-scale ecosystem-level alterations\, and provide local assessment of ecosystem services to be considered by decision-makers.\n\nIn this webinar\, project team members will describe how two years of intensive sampling in and adjacent to oyster farms and ongoing collaboration with oyster farms and the policy community has resulted in the production of visualization tools and models that will allow resource managers\, shellfish growers\, and other end users to make better decisions when determining the locations and scales of shellfish farming operations. The team found that environmental impacts of these farms were minimal\, but that policy decisions were more complex. This finding led to an additional project examining the extent of shellfish aquaculture within the nationwide Reserve system.

Equipped with unprecedented spatial resolution\, electronic detection\, and magnetic tunability\, scanning tunneling microscopy has become an advanced tool to probe and discover the emergent topological matter. In this talk\, I will review the proof-of-principle methodology to study the elusive quantum topology in this discipline\, with particular attention on the studies under a vector magnetic field as the new direction\, and project future perspectives in tunneling into other hitherto unknown topological matter.\n\nKey references:\n\nJia-Xin Yin et al.

Using the famous wills case Dew v. Clark and Clark as a jumping off point\, this talk will explore some of the ways in which an individual’s legal personhood became\, in part\, a matter of medical judgment and the law itself became to a certain extent medicalized.\n\nJohn Carson is associate professor of history at the University of Michigan.

Davenport Lecture in the Medical Humanities DESCRIPTION:The Center for the History of Medicine is pleased to announce its 19th Annual Horace W. Davenport Lecture in the Medical Humanities.\n\nThis year’s lecture will feature Dr. Powel Kazanjian\, Professor and Chief of Infectious Diseases at the University of Michigan Medical School. Dr. Kazanjian is also Professor of History at the University of Michigan\, where he teaches on the history of epidemics and the history of sexually transmitted diseases. He has written extensively about the history of AIDS\, syphilis\, commercial botulism\, plague\, and the development of bacteriology in America.\n\nDr. Kazanjian will deliver his lecture\, “The Persistence of Contagious Diseases.” By the later 20th century\, it had become common for public health officials and lay writers to envision a future in which epidemic diseases had been eliminated. The appearance of the new deadly disease that would eventually be known as AIDS in 1981\, however\, challenged their confident vision. The potent antiretroviral therapies (ART) introduced in 1996 enabled individuals receiving treatment to survive a full lifespan. By 2014\, a global UNAIDS campaign sought to “end AIDS as a global health threat” by 2030” by maximizing the distribution of ART to infected people. The UNAIDS campaign is conceptually similar to earlier 20th century programs that sought to end syphilis by expanding specific therapy. The failure of these syphilis campaigns\, together with the realization that today’s efforts to end AIDS is falling short of their 2020 milestones\, however\, raise uncertainties about whether the ongoing UNAIDs campaign will succeed. Socioeconomic and behavioral factors have hindered the biomedical campaigns to eliminate syphilis and AIDS. To be effective\, scientific public health campaigns must also address how to rectify the socioeconomic conditions and human behaviors that vex elimination efforts and lead to emerging epidemics like AIDS and Covid-19. Epidemic diseases\, along with efforts launched to contain them\, have been and continue to be an inescapable part of our existence.\n\nPlease join us for this engaging and timely online lecture from one of the nation’s premiere infectious disease experts.\n\nThursday\, November 12\, 2020\n\n3:00 pm – 4:30 pm\n\nZoom link: https://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93152555886 UID:78729-20113300@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/78729 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biology,Chemistry,History,Humanities,Law,LGBT,Medicine,Philosophy,Pre Med,Pre-Health,Public Health,Research,Social Sciences,Sociology LOCATION:Off Campus Location - none CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20191121T181643 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201021T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201021T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the 60s and 70s: Kaleidoscope DESCRIPTION:The notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism in the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 1960s and 70s. Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities. Their strategies dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in a shifting American political landscape.\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund\, and the Robert and Janet Miller Fund UID:68986-17207599@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/68986 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Detroit,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n \nRead the exhibition press release here.\n \nJOIN US FOR THE GRAND OPENING AT UMMA AFTER HOURS Tuesday\, April 2 7–10 p.m.\n \nGallery talks\, live music\, and more!

The goal of the program is not to eliminate a client’s accent\, but to build confidence in any communication or setting.\n\nParticipants set their own individual goals at the start of the workshop and will work to achieve those goals using a combination of small group activities and one-on-one interaction. The workshop typically runs for 10 weeks\, but will depend on when it begins. If the group workshop does work with your schedule\, please contact us\; individual consultations are available.\n\nWhat to Expect\n* An initial meeting focusing on setting your personal goals and objectives\n* Both group and individual activities\n* Exercises for improving articulation\, rate control\, and projection\n* Increased confidence in social and professional interactions\n* Guidance from a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist\n\nContact UCLL at (734) 764-8440 or visit LanguageExperts.org for more details and to register.

While these shocks have been studied for decades by spacecraft\, telescopes\, and numerical simulations\, there remain key open questions in shock physics\, such as: How do shocks accelerate particles to extremely high energies? or How are particles heated across a shock? Laboratory experiments thus provide a significant opportunity to both complement spacecraft and remote sensing observations with well-controlled and well-diagnosed datasets\, and to help benchmark numerical simulations that bridge laboratory and astrophysical systems.\n\nIn this talk\, I will discuss recent results from experiments and simulations on the formation and evolution of collision-less shocks created through the interaction of a supersonic laser-driven magnetic piston and magnetized ambient plasma. Through advanced diagnostics a fast\, high-Mach-number shock is observed. Direct probing of particle velocity distributions reveals the coupling between the piston and ambient plasmas that is a key step in forming magnetized collisionless shocks. Particle-in-cell simulations further detail the shock formation process\, the role of collisionality\, and the dynamics of multi-ion-species ambient plasmas. I will also discuss how this experimental platform complements spacecraft missions and can allow novel investigations of shock heating and particle acceleration.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Schaeffer is an Associate Research Scholar in the Department of Astrophysical Sciences at Princeton University. He received his BA in Physics at Cornell University and his PhD in Physics from UCLA\, and did his postdoctoral work at Princeton in high-energy-density laboratory astrophysics. Dr. Schaeffer has extensive experience in experiments involving magnetized laser plasmas\, collisionless shocks\, and magnetic reconnection\, and a keen interest in bridging laboratory and astronomical observations. He also has expertise in a wide range of diagnostics\, including Thomson scattering\, refractive imaging\, proton radiography\, and x-ray imaging. He has authored dozens of papers and has presented at numerous conferences around the world.

Barriers to implementation include clinician trust\, algorithm credibility and actionability\, promoting clinician literacy in machine learning methods\, and mitigating unintended consequences. \n\nIn the high-risk operating room setting\, anesthesiologists are recognized leaders in patient safety\, and manage uncertainty through careful considerations of risk and benefit based upon a thorough understanding of disease processes and treatment mechanisms. In this talk\, the speaker highlights how obstacles to implementation of machine-learning based healthcare applications can be mitigated\, and how an understanding of such applications can be promoted among clinically-minded anesthesiologists who may not necessarily be expert data scientists.\n\nShort Bio:\nDr. Mathis has research interests in improving perioperative care for patients with advanced cardiovascular disease\, particularly for patients with heart failure. As part of the Multicenter Perioperative Outcomes Group (MPOG)\, an international consortium of perioperative databases for which U-M serves as the coordinating center\, he serves as Associate Research Director and plays a lead role in integration of MPOG data with data from national cardiac and thoracic surgery registries. He also has interests in leveraging novel data science methods to understand patterns within highly granular intraoperative physiologic data\, studying hemodynamic responses to surgical and anesthetic stimuli as a means for early detection of cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure.\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09 UID:78531-20058232@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/78531 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biology,Biomedical Engineering,Biosciences,Cardiovascular,Chemistry,Discussion,Electrical Engineering and Computer Science,Engineering,Free,Human Genetics,Information and Technology,Learning Health Systems,Lecture,Life Science,Mathematics,Medicine,Pediatrics,Physics,Public Health,Research,Science,seminar,Structural Biology,Talk LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201002T120003 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201021T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201021T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Pre-Law 101 for Transfer Students DESCRIPTION:This session will provide you with the first steps in exploring a career in law.
